Chapter 13 Wild Eggs
Su Chi always listened to Su He, so when he heard Su He say it was okay, he nodded.
The two found a flat ground, put down their backpacks and baskets, took out the water and sweet potatoes they brought today, and started eating.
Su He had been walking for the whole morning and was now out of breath. He had been lying in bed for too long without moving, and it seemed that his body was still a little weak.
It seems that I still need to exercise more.
Having not eaten anything in the morning and having walked for so long, the two were really hungry. They finished all the sweet potatoes in no time and drank a big gulp of water. Gradually, they felt full.
Su He touched her stomach and decided to go back and catch a few more fish so that she could make some fish soup in the evening to replenish her stomach.
In fact, what she wants to eat most is meat, braised pork, big chicken legs... She's drooling just thinking about it.
I have been eating wild vegetables every day for more than half a month, and my face looks pale.
After eating and resting for a while, Su He felt his strength slowly returning. He stood up and prepared to take Su Chi back.
There seemed to be a bird's nest in a thick pile of weeds not far away. Su He signaled his younger brother to keep quiet and pointed in the direction of the weeds.
Su Chi looked in the direction of Su He's finger. At first he thought Su He had found mushrooms again. He took a closer look and felt a surge of ecstasy in his heart.
Su Chi ran around the village all day, either collecting bird eggs or fishing in the river. He saw that it was either a bird's nest or a pheasant's nest. There might be birds in it. If he could catch one, he would have meat to eat in the evening.
The two men looked at each other, stood up, and walked forward slowly, one on the left and one on the right.
When Su He got closer, he squatted down, stretched his neck into the grass and observed carefully for a while, and found that there seemed to be no movement.
He raised the stick in his hand, reached into the grass and slowly pulled it aside. In an instant, what came into the eyes of the two men were pheasant eggs lined up one after another.
When Su Chi saw the pheasant eggs, he was delighted. He squatted beside Su He and counted them one by one. There were actually more than ten.
Although no pheasants were found, finding these dozen pheasant eggs was a pleasant surprise. The Su family usually didn't want to eat the eggs laid by their own hens.
These dozen or so can be cooked for the family to nourish their bodies. It is the busy farming season recently, and if we don’t eat something good, I’m really afraid that the whole family will be weak.
Su He pulled out a handful of weeds and asked Su Chi to bring the basket over. She put the weeds under the basket and then carefully picked up the pheasant eggs and put them in the basket to avoid accidentally breaking them when she returned later.
Su Chi looked at the pleasing pheasant eggs in the basket and suddenly grinned.
"Sister, shall we have pheasant eggs tonight?"
It's no wonder that Su Chi was envious of the pheasant eggs. The Su family hadn't eaten meat for at least a year. Only occasionally when Su He had steamed eggs, she would secretly give Su Chi a few bites.
Su He looked at his younger brother's eager face and was about to speak when he saw a white shadow flash by not far away.
Su He motioned to his younger brother not to speak, then quickly followed. After running a few steps, he saw nothing in front of him. Su He rubbed his eyes, thinking secretly: Could it be that I am dazzled and seeing things?
Su Chi followed behind, looking at the empty space in front of him, and was also confused.
"Pa" Su He hit the grass on the side with his stick. The two were about to go back when they saw a snow-white rabbit suddenly jumped out from the grass a few steps away from them.
Ran forward quickly.
Su He and Su Chi were stunned when they saw the hare suddenly jump out, and they stared in the direction where the hare ran away.
Su He was secretly delighted, it turned out that she was not seeing things just now, there really was a hare.
I think it was because when they were picking up pheasant eggs, they disturbed the weeds and startled the hare hiding in the grass.
Now that we have seen it, it would be unreasonable not to catch it. Besides, if we catch the wild rabbit, we will have meat to eat tonight.
The two looked at each other, then understood each other and ran forward in unison.
Anxious Su Chi pounced forward towards the hare, but he missed. The frightened hare jumped even faster.
The hare in front of him saw it running towards a dead tree stump on the other side. Su He saw that the hare was about to run away, so he squatted down hurriedly, picked up a fist-sized stone, and threw it at the hare.
That's why I say I was lucky today. The stone I threw hit the hare exactly, and the next moment the hare fell straight down.
Seeing this, Su Chi couldn't help but open his mouth wide, his eyes full of disbelief.
Their luck today was really too good. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he really wouldn't have believed that Sister's aim was so good that she actually hit the rabbit. Would they have meat to eat tonight?
Su He ignored his younger brother's straightforward look, and quickly stepped forward to grab the rabbit he had just caught. He weighed it and found that it was at least six or seven kilograms, enough for the whole family to have a delicious meal.
Various ways of eating rabbit meat flashed through Su He's mind, and he could no longer contain his cravings.
"Sister, this hare is really fat."
At this time, Su Chi also ran to Su He's side, looking at the hare in Su He's hand, his heart leaping with joy.
Su He put the pheasant eggs back into the backpack, pulled a vine nearby to tie up the rabbit's legs, and put it into the empty basket.
"Sister, look quickly, what is that?"
Su Chi pointed at a tree stump nearby and shouted in surprise.
Su He looked in the direction of the tree stump. At first, he didn't see anything. He took a step forward and squatted down, only to find that there was a hole on the side of the tree stump. Next to it was a lush weed that quietly covered half of the hole. If you didn't look carefully, you really wouldn't be able to find it.
Thinking about how a hare just ran towards this tree stump, it might be a hare's nest.
Did you dig out animal nests today? I just found a pheasant nest and picked up a dozen pheasant eggs. Now I also found a rabbit nest.
Without taking the time to calm his inner excitement, Su He squatted down, pushed aside the weeds in front of the hole in the tree stump, and saw a nest of wild rabbits appear before his eyes.
To be precise, it was a litter of wild rabbit cubs. They were white and furry, huddled together for warmth, so adorable.
Su He quickly called Su Chi, took the basket, reached into the tree hole, and took out the wild rabbit babies one by one.
Su Chi standing by watched without blinking. Su He took out one and he counted them while touching them lovingly one by one.
After all the wild rabbits were taken out of the tree hole, Su He counted them again and found that there were actually seven or eight of them. This was truly a pleasant surprise.
These wild rabbit cubs can be raised in the backyard. When they grow up, you can eat them at home or sell them, and it can also supplement the family income.
